Scott and Crystal from Bradenton were in a heated debate and in a fit of craziness Scott jumped up ran out the door and from the 4th floor balcony threw his wedding ring as far as he could. After thinking it over for an hour or so he decided it would be a good idea to go try and find it. He figured it had landed in a large grass area so went and purchased a metal detector to assist in the hunt. He hunted for a couple days and found many interesting pieces of junk but not the ring. They contacted SRARC through The Ring Finders web site and Joe Szemer passed the info on to Mike Miller. Mike made arrangements to meet them at the location and a short time later the hunt was on. While Scott was looking with his detector he had identified several locations he thought the ring might be in. He had ordered but had not received a pin pointer so he could check them out. He took Mike to each place and Mike said no to all but the last one. That one had a great tone and VDI. Mike put his pin pointer down and there it was. Mike got a big hug from Scott and lots of smiles from both Crystal and Scott. But the truth be told, had Scott received his pin pointer before Mike showed up he would have found it himself. Turns out Mike was just an assist. Congratulations Scott on your first ever recovery.

Juan was visiting Anna Maria Island with his Mom, Dad, and Brother for the day from Orlando. He is a social media influencer under the name Lejuan James and wanted to produce a skit about sharks and the warnings his mother gave him as a child. He got into a shark outfit and started running in the shallow water away from his brother whom caught him and tackled him. As soon as he hit the water he felt his wedding ring come off. They all searched for a while but found nothing. Juan called his wife, Camella, and she soon found SRARC ring finders on the internet. She called Howard who put out a call. Mike Miller responded and soon headed to the island to meet Juan. After searching for about an hour, an afternoon lighting storm appeared and the search was ended. Juan and family headed back to Orlando with an assurance from Mike he would return to hunt the next day. The next day after about 20 minutes Mike found the ring. He contacted Juan and let him know the ring had been recovered. Juan packed up his wife and child and met Mike at his house where the ring was returned among lots of smiles. Always a pleasure to put such big smiles on peoples faces. The short video is what was being filmed when he lost the ring.

Naomi and her husband and their two children were vacationing from Huston, Texas with other family members in Riverside. They all went to the beach on Anna Maria Island for some fun in the sun and gulf waters. They set up camp with a canopy and chairs and went about enjoying the day. At some point Naomi was in the water and could feel that her beautiful wedding ring was to loose and asked her husband to go put her rings into the beach bag under the canopy. He did as she asked except he put the rings onto a chair cup holder instead of the bag. When it came time to leave they picked up the chairs and the rings flew into the sand. Naomi’s brother spotted one of the rings but after continuing to search the wedding ring could not be found. After arriving home that evening Naomi’s grandfather found the SRARC ring finders on the internet. They contacted Howard Metts and he put out a request for hunters. Mike Miller responded and was soon on the hunt. After about 30 minutes the ring was recovered. Naomi was already in Orlando to catch a flight home so she asked her sister to meet Mike and the ring was put into her hands for the safe return to Naomi. SRARC is happy to have been able to bring another happy ending to a vacation in Florida.

Kara was in town from Texas to help out her parents through some medical issues. They went to Siesta Key Beach to enjoy the warm weather for a few hours. Kara removed her wedding ring to apply sunscreen and promptly forgot she had set it in her lap. She stood up, walked around and then to the water’s edge. After returning to her chair she remembered her ring and searched but could not find it. She found the SRARC ring finders on line and soon had Mike Miller headed to meet her at the beach. She lead Mike right to the spot where they had been sitting and after about three swings of the coil up came the ring. She will be smiling all the way back to Texas and SRARC will be smiling with her.

Joe and Judy were down from Nashville, Tennessee spending the winter months at their condo on Siesta Key. As thy were putting away their boat on the lift, Joe leaned over the side and his I-phone slipped out of his pocket and into the sludge at the bottom of the dock. As the news spread at the condo one of their neighbors, who had called SRARC for a lost ring which Mike had recovered in the previous year, told them about our recovery service and they soon found us on the internet. Joe Szemer sent Mike Miller the contact information and he next morning at low tide Mike began the hunt in neck deep water and foot deep bottom muck. After about 15 minutes Mike hit a target but could not retrieve it in his scoop. Changing tactic’s he began pushing his coil under the target and moving it toward the bulk head and shallower water. After several attempts the target stayed on the coil and up came the I-phone. The amazing part is that after 3 days and nights under 6 to 8 feet of salt water all they had to do is clean it up, charge it and it turned right on as if it had never been under water.

Jeff took his family to the ballpark in Sarasota to watch his son play baseball. There was a group so he brought chairs and the canopy to protect them from the sun. As she unloaded and set up the equipment he saw his wedding ring fall off and immediately picked it up and put it back on. After the ball game was over he packed everything up and as he was preparing to leave noticed he no longer had his wedding ring. The family all searched but with no luck and Jeff finally contacted the ballpark manager so he could check the lost and found. Manager was aware that SRARC had previously recovered a ring for someone else and gave Jeff our information. Howard Mets posted a call out and Mike Miller responded. Mike met Jeff the following morning at 10:00 AM and searched the area where the ring had possibly been lost. After about 45 minutes Mike got the good tone and uncovered the missing ring. Jeff was overjoyed to have his ring returned and SRARC is ever so happy to have helped someone out once again.

Johannes, Anna, their three children Filippa, Jakob, and Oshar were visiting Longboat Key for a Christmas vacation from Sweden. Johannes knew that his wedding ring was very loose and needed to be resized and had vowed to not wear it to the beach. On the day after Christmas he forgot all this and found himself out on the beach tossing a football back and forth with his son Jakob. He was standing right on the edge of the dry sand where the waves came up lapping at his feet. As he reached out to catch the ball he saw his ring slide off his finger and into the wet sand. He and about 30 other hotel guests spent an hour trying to find the ring and then someone suggested he contact SRARC ring finders. He googled the ring finders and found Howard Mets who contacted Mike Miller. Mike made arrangements with Johannes to meet and a couple of hours later he arrived at the hotel. Johannes and Anna met him at the lobby and let him to where they believed the ring would be. Earlier they had drawn a line in the sand pointing to where they believed the ring was. Mike lined up with the mark in the sand, took about five steps out into the water and hit a target. With one scoop, up came the ring and Mike turned and started walking back to the dry sand. Johannes couldn’t believe that it might have been found but when Mike extended the scoop and he looked inside there sat his ring. He his family and the whole beach erupted in cheers. We took pictures and with smiles on everyone’s face return to the hotel lobby and sat down for a happy visit with this wonderful family. What a Christmas joy to see the smiles on their faces and have a chance to meet new friends from across the pond.

Jessica and family were up from Venice, Fl to visit with her sister Laura and family living on Anna Maria Island. Laura and her family will soon be leaving for an extended trip to France so on Sunday afternoon both family’s headed to down the block to the beach to enjoy some time on the sand and playing in the Gulf. Jessica took both her engagement and wedding ring off and stored them safely in her shorts pocket. At some point in the afternoon, Jessica and Laura decided to play teenage girls again and started doing cartwheels up and down the beach. As evening approached they all packed up and headed for home. As they walked off the Beach Jessica reached into her pocket to get her rings and terror struck her heart. Nothing was in her pocket. They all returned to the beach and searched but soon realized it was fruitless since they didn’t have any real idea when the rings had been lost. Jessica’s husband googled lost and found Anna Maria Island and the SRARC ring finders popped up. Jessica was soon in touch with Joe Szemer who contacted Mike Miller. Mike made arrangements to meet with Laura the next morning to do the hunt. Laura staked out the area where they had been and Mike went to work. After about 45 minutes Mike got a hit and took a scoop of sand and dumped it out of the scoop. Right away he saw a shiny white gold object reflected in the sun. He motioned Laura over and pointed. Laura excitedly kneeled down and recovered the engagement ring. She then looked up at Mike and said “ There is another ring”. Mike took a swing over the same sand pile and then pinpointed the spot for her. She reached into the sand and up came the wedding ring. She couldn’t believe we had found them and instantly called her sister with the great news. Jessica was already in route from Venice in hopes the rings would be found and began crying as she received the good news. Mike was invited in for coffee while we waited for Jessica to arrive. After she arrived and the rings had been returned we all sat around the table and had a great conversation about their whole families adventures in moving from France to the USA. I want to welcome them all to the USA and thank them for their kind treatment of me. Most of all I loved to see the BIG SMILES on their faces as we parted ways.
